Fisher & Paykel ICON+ Auto CPAP Machine with Built In Heated Humidifier & SensAwake
[ICONAAN-HT, ICONAAN]

I have ordered CPAP masks earlier from respshop and have been impressed by their prompt service. I was using a Full Face Forma makd and it broke during one of my travels. Earlier in the year, I had talked to their Live Chat with one of their specialists and he had recommended a full face mask of another make, but I went for the same mask again as I had spare mask cushions and headgear.

I ordered this machine on 27th march. The machine arrived in Abu Dhabi, UAE on 6th April via USPS. I was using the Fisher Paykel HC254 autocpap machine earlier for almost 5 years. This machine is more compact compared to the earlier machine.

The settings on the machine are also simpler and the display is much bigger. The humidifier removal and cleaning is quite easy. The humidifier container can be dismantled entirely for cleaning which is a big advantage as the humidifier container was sealed in the earlier machine that I had. I am also using a software- Sleepy Head to read the data from the USB on Linux and it works like a charm. I am able to monitor my sleep also.

I get a feeling that the pressure on this machine is lower than what was with the earlier machine when I wake up, but it may be due to the Sense Awake monitoring which might be reducing the pressure when I wake up. Even though the humidifier container looks only slightly smaller than the previous machine, I find that the water has to be replaced more frequentlty.

Overall, I am very satisified with the performance of this machine.
